PCC WINTER TERM REGISTRATION STARTS I’VE BEEN THERE by Wally Noakes You asked me if I’ve been there, I don’t know where you mean. But if it’s a bit of heaven or hell, then I have made the scene. Have I climbed the highest mountain? Or fell to the depths below? Or walked the pathway in between, Is that what you want to know? To have the dear love of a woman, to hold her child in your hand. And know he’s blood of your blood, most precious thing in the land. Or the true love of Mother and Father, who would sacrifice all for you. The brothers and sisters around you, that cheer you when you get blue. You say maybe I’ve been lucky, but what does a man call luck? To have some one that cares enough, to keep him out of the muck? To feel the pangs of hunger, with your gut knotted up inside. And wonder why you were ever bom, and some times wish you could die. To lose a dear companion \ who had been staunch through the years. And know the feeling of despair, and the shedding of copious tears. Is this the answer you’re after, of these things have I had my share? The answer is really quite simple, yes, brother I have been there.
